Madison is about to welcome its first Duck Donuts location, bringing a new level of excitement to the city’s food scene. This North Carolina-based franchise F&B brand, known for its customizable doughnuts and indulgent treats, will open on Saturday, August 17 at 3308 University Avenue, near the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Housed in The Boulevard Apartments, the shop promises to delight both locals and visitors.
Doors will open at 6 a.m., and Duck Donuts is pulling out all the stops for its grand debut. The first customer in line will win a dozen free donuts every month for a year, while the next 50 guests will receive the “Sprinkling Happiness Package,” which includes two dozen donuts and a coffee bucket redeemable during a future visit.
The new shop is owned and operated by local partners Mark and Amanda Kienbaum, and Dave Crain, who were inspired to bring Duck Donuts to Madison after enjoying the brand’s signature offerings during a family vacation.
Founded in 2007 in North Carolina’s Outer Banks, Duck Donuts has grown into a global franchise with over 150 locations across 25 states and countries including Thailand, Canada, and Egypt. Its success is fueled by its distinctive menu, which includes:
These offerings have made Duck Donuts a go-to for both sweet and savory cravings, redefining the typical doughnut experience.
Beyond serving delicious doughnuts, Duck Donuts Madison is giving back to the community through its Quack Gives Back program. The store is partnering with the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Wisconsin to support local fundraising initiatives. Guests can contribute by donating at the register or purchasing a limited-edition Wish Rubber Duck.
Madison, with its vibrant university community and growing foodie culture, is an ideal location for this franchise F&B brand. The shop will operate seven days a week, with hours from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
This addition highlights the city’s appeal for innovative franchise investments and underscores the opportunities for franchise F&B brands looking to expand in thriving markets.
Duck Donuts’ success showcases the potential for franchise F&B ventures in emerging markets. Whether you’re an entrepreneur eyeing investment opportunities or a seasoned business leader, Madison’s latest addition is proof that unique, high-quality concepts can create buzz and sustained success.
